I stress movement, but only if things aren't going my way in the position I'm in. As a smaller guy, I typically can move better than my opponent. However, it also makes it a lot easier for them to throw me off. I try not to move for movement's sake, only when it has a stragegic advantage.

The first way I learned to do a double leg, was on my feet in a squatting posture. A Jun Fan guy taught it to me, and I like it because your knee doesn't have to touch the potentially hazardous ground. The draw back is that when I do it, it doesn't have as much power as when I do a real tackle (w/a penetration step).
